"Mr President, I voted in favour of this motion for a resolution for two reasons. Unfortunately, another barbaric phenomenon, justified in some cases by religious options, persists in the 21st century. However, these barbaric practices of extreme violence against women affect 140 million women worldwide and more than 500 000 women in Europe. I believe we must put an end to such practices and I welcome the opportunity to discuss this phenomenon in the United Nations General Assembly.
Nevertheless, it is alarming that this phenomenon has expanded and continues to expand in Europe, and, it is certainly unacceptable for countries with civilised human rights and equality standards to tolerate it. This report is a warning sign for the European dimensions of this phenomenon and, therefore, it deserves our full attention."@en1
